Step back in time on a trip to Luxor.

Luxor holidays appeal to couples of all ages and are often taken during the winter months when it is less hot, and when conditions are more comfortable for sightseeing. And visitors to Luxor , without exception, are sightseers. The tombs of the pharaohs are found in the Valley of the Kings on the west bank of the Nile. Most of the tombs are not open to the public as work is ongoing. Visitors must pass through the tombs in single file and photography is forbidden. Surrounded by the modern city on the east side of the Nile is the imposing Karnak Temple, the largest in the world. It is an amazing sight by day but absolutely stunning at night when there is a sound and light show. The city has several museums, the most popular and the most gruesome, as well as the most fascinating is the Mummification Museum.

Sail down the River Nile.

While on your cheap Luxor holiday, take a felucca and sail up the Nile when the sun is setting.
